How do I print vertically using Microsoft Office Picture Manager?

My friend drew a comic, and I'm trying to use the Picture Manager to print the comic to PDF creator, but everything is sideways, which really takes away from the readability of the comic. I don't want to use word to make the pdf because I have to mess with the margins and the size of each individual picture and page, and I don't want to put up with that.

Are you using a 3 party PDF printer?

Print to XPS Document Writer using the link mentioned below and check if it works fine:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Print-to-the-Microsoft-XPS-Document-Writer

You may check the PDF printer settings and see if the options are set to rotate the image or to print in landscape view.

If you are able to print fine using XPS printer you may have to contact PDF add-in manufacturers.

    ===========================================

    If you can import the files into Picture Manager...they are

    apparently in a photo format...JPG I am guessing.

    If you download and use the freeware PrimoPDF to create

    (print) the .PDF...you may have better results.

    (FWIW...it's always a good idea to create a System

    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Download and install the freeware PrimoPDF

    http://www.primopdf.com/

    (the file to download is "InternationalPrimoPDF.exe")

    With your new program installed...open your photos

    in Picture Manager and go to...File / Print.

    On your Print screen...open the drop window and

    select PrimoPDF as your printer.

    Click...OK...now you will see the PrimoPDF screen

    and you can browse to a save folder.

    (Have patience...it may take some time for PrimoPDF

    to open.)

    When you click...OK..your .pdf file will be created

    in your save folder.
